Tiny-Swiper is a lightweight (~2kb) zero-dependency JavaScript carousel/slider library written in TypeScript with a plugin-based architecture. It provides a native-like touch swipe experience and lets developers import only the plugins they need, such as pagination and lazyload.

Use cases

• add a touch-friendly image carousel to a web page
• build a lightweight slider without pulling in a heavy dependency
• create a swipeable gallery with lazy-loaded images
• add pagination controls to a slider
• implement a vertical or free-mode slider
• replace Swiper.js with a smaller 2kb alternative
• build a responsive carousel with breakpoints

When to choose

• you need a minimal, zero-dependency carousel with a tiny bundle size
• you want to tree-shake and include only the features you use
• you need native-like touch swipe behavior on mobile web
• you prefer writing your own CSS for pagination and navigation

When to avoid

• you need a full-featured slider with extensive built-in UI, effects, and framework components out of the box
• you require long-term active maintenance or commercial support
• you need React/Vue/Angular wrapper components provided by the library
• you need accessibility features or an explicit open-source license guarantee from the repository
